How to cook Kheer

Kheer is milk pudding made out of vermicelli, broken wheat or rice garnished along with nuts and raisins. You can add a dash of saffron to give that beautiful color to the kheer. It is mostly prepared in South India but equally famous all across the country. It serves as excellent dessert for every party.

Ingredients

Milk – 1 cup

Half cup of rice, broken wheat or vermicelli (in case of rice or broken wheat you need to wash and soak them)

8 cardamoms – peeled and powdered

Soak 20 strands of saffron in 2-3 tablespoon of hot milk

6-7 table spoon of sugar along with 14 almonds and 12 pistachios

Preparation

Simmer the milk for sometime after you boil it.

Now coarsely grind the rice or broken wheat after draining the water.

Now add the coarsely ground rice or wheat and normal vermicelli to the milk along with sugar.

Stir the milk non-stop so that rice, wheat or vermicelli does not stick to the pan.
